Yes by all means, though the phrase "hold him to it" sounds odd to my ears. You're talking about giving us what we asked for, which I appreciate, especially since you don't agree with the idea, which I respect.
I also appreciate your including the qualifier 'this week', because that's a critical detail and one thing I learned yesterday is that there's a risk of it getting lost in the shuffle. We don't want this to go beyond a week, least of all if it was a bad idea in the first place.
Following absurd rules to the letter is a form of protest. That's what I understand "hold him to it" means.

I disagree with dang's decision to impose "political detox" on the site this week, but since he's done it, let's hold him to it.
